Rabbit Harness

Does anyone know of a good rabbit harness i can get my rabbit. I brought her out into the back yard with me and she stayed still but just incase i dont want her to get away from me. I got one ofthose comfort ones with mesh on it and she slips right out of it >.>...so any suggestions?:?

I would recommend an H style cat harness. They have a strap that goes around the neck and one that goes around the chest, the 2 straps are connected along the back. When laid out, it looks like an H. A small or kitten size will fit most rabbits. They are easy to get on and won't tighten when on the rabbit, so are safe and won't choke the rabbit. There are a few brands out there, so you should be able to find something that will work. It is a good idea to bring your rabbit with you to try it on an make sure it fits.

The problem with vest ones is that you really can't get them tight enough. With H ones, you set the size and just have to buckle it on the rabbit. It may need to be adjusted as the rabbit grows or if they get fat, but you don't need to get the sizing right each time. The vets ones also rely on velcro which tends to get clogged with fur. Unless there is also a buckle, it can come off more easily.

I had a vest one and they could get out of it. Then I got a figure 8 which I liked, but I didn't like the thought that it was all one strap and the neck could get too tight. Now I have this harness

which fits well. We got the smaller size for Timmy; he's about 4.5 lbs.

I'll see if it works her neck is six inches.and around her waist is 11 inches.... I don't think she will be getting any bigger she already is six months
